My cynical view is that a knight's skill set can be fun but all it really does is mean the knights' death is much slower. You will usually be the last man standing before getting pounded by barbs and warlocks from the other side.
All the protection and buffs you get come at a cost if you want to be a tank then forget doing big damage and expect to to be spammed by slow spells and mana draining. The knight can end up being an extra mana pool for a mages, particularly warlocks with SS because he lasts longer so won't die before his mana is gone.
Knight can be a really asset when paired with other classes but once separated and usually left behind, catching up with the action can be a problem and if your pals are dead skip to paragraph 1.
If you want to live fast, hit hard and die young go for barbarian.
Move deaf roar to knights, I say.
